Back in the day not so long ago this band was huge. Bigger than life. Then they split. Broke apart. The band is back together again, but it is not the same as it was. At this point they are just going through the motions for money. When they were at the top and could have stayed on the top, they split. They used the whole creative differences excuses for the reason, but it was way more juicy than that. It always is. The lead singer was the nail that broke everyone. He always stated and acted that he was better than everyone, not just the rest of his band. But, in reality, even though he said he was sober, he drank every night. Even though he said he was faithful, he cheated every night, usually more than once. Often, several times. Even if his wife was on tour with him he would cheat. What he would tell her was quiet reflection time was him getting serviced in the bus or backstage by whatever groupie had caught his interest. The fake pious act was what started it, but what clinched it was when the singer slept with two of the band members then girlfriends. When they found out, they were not as ticked off at their girlfriends as they were at the singer. He said that he was spreading his seed to his flock. Yep, and he was deadly serious when he said it. Despite him having sex with their girlfriends, that is not what broke the band up. It was another chip. One he saved for a flight they were all on to a gig. Private jet. Plane takes off and on the video screen comes a movie with the lead singer having sex with each of the girlfriends. Two separate movies. When the plane landed, the group broke up. Apparently time heals all wounds. That and a diminishing wallet. One of the band members married the girlfriend the singer slept with. I wouldn't be surprised if he had done so again.
